Chief Magistrate Douglas Ogoti has dismissed an application by former Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko to recuse himself from handling Sonko’s case.
Ogoti ruled that Sonko’s defense team had failed to provide sufficient evidence to prove his alleged bias and attempts to subvert justice.
“Sonko has not proved any claims of bias to warrant the court to disqualify me,” the magistrate ruled.
Further, Ogoti has also allowed the Director of Public Prosecution (DPP) Noordin Haji to introduce one more witness in the case.
